Genesis 34:27 בְּרֵאשִׁית

Who acts: sons, men · What happens: come, spoil, defile · To what, where: slain, city, sister

This is Genesis 34:27 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (The Torah). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — sons, men — and what happens in the verse to slain, city, sister, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Onkelos and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 50 chapters of Genesis on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between.

בְּנֵ֣י יַעֲקֹ֗ב בָּ֚אוּ עַל־הַ֣חֲלָלִ֔ים וַיָּבֹ֖זּוּ הָעִ֑יר אֲשֶׁ֥ר טִמְּא֖וּ אֲחוֹתָֽם׃

The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister.

The tree

Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one. Under each word its part of speech and MACULA's English gloss.

MACULA's semantic frames: for each verb the head word of each participant. A0 is the one who acts, A1 what the act is done to or is about, A2 a further participant; AA, with a causative verb, the one who makes it happen.

Targum Onkelos

בְּנֵי יַעֲקֹב עַלּוּ לְחַלָּצָא קָטִילַיָּא וּבְזוֹ קַרְתָּא דִּי סָאִיבוּ אֲחָתְהוֹן

The Aramaic translation read beside the Hebrew. Text only: Mova has no Aramaic parser yet.
